The co-chairs of the PCA/ACA Vampire Studies area are soliciting papers, presentations, panels and roundtable discussions that cover any aspect of the Vampire for the Annual National Popular Culture Association Conference to be held in Philadelphia, PA from April 15-18, 2020.

The
vampire on legacy television shows (i.e. Dark Shadows, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel,
Moonlight, The Vampire Diaries, The
Originals)

The
vampire on recent television shows (i.e. What
We Do In the Shadows, From Dusk Till Dawn, Castlevania)

To have your proposal/abstract considered for presentation, please submit your proposal/abstract of approximately 250 words at the Popular Culture Association Website. We also welcome complete panel proposals of 3-4 people.
